No. The black wax protects the cheese as it matures and keeps it fresh, but it isn't meant to be eaten. Peel or cut it away before serving.

What does Black Bomber Cheddar taste like?

The Story Behind Snowdonia Black Bomber: A Welsh Cheese Icon

Snowdonia Cheese Company was founded in North Wales in 2001 with a simple goal: create a luxury range of Welsh cheeses. It found fans almost immediately at local farmers' markets. Within months, its colorful wax-coated wheels were on the shelves of fine delis. Today those same wheels appear on restaurant menus around the world.

Black Bomber is the company's flagship cheese, and it has become a modern classic. It's an extra mature Cheddar with a rich, tangy depth and an unexpectedly creamy texture. It has won awards at the World Cheese Awards, the British Cheese Awards, and the Nantwich International Cheese Awards, and it earned a Super Gold at France's Mondial du Fromage. It's the kind of Cheddar our cheese team loves to put in front of customers who think they know Cheddar.
